This is a really cool app for the Aurora panels. It has a bunch of different setting you can adjust so you can get it set just how you want it. If you're into lighting with Nanoleaf panels ( Aurora ) then this app is a must have!

Was not able to get it to connect at first. Power cycled the panels a few times and works great.

Works fine and the effects are fun. Only negative is the steep price for only one effect. All in all a good add on for the Nanoleaf - best lighting product since the hue. Great app.
